165 -It is possible, that openvpn has problems with Ubuntu.
166 - The problem is that in the network manager from the openvpn plugin in the settings page, this thing has to be activated: {{html wiki="true"}}<strong>''Use this connection only for resources on its network''</strong>{{/html}}. When activated there is no possible {{html wiki="true"}}<strong>defaultgateway</strong>{{/html}}. Although the RBG VPN has no default gateway, thinks the network manager, that there is one and so is the problem lost
165 +Networkmanager sets the default route through our VPN even though it doesn't provide a default gateway.
166 +To fix this, activate the setting "use this connection only for resources on its network"
